accidental video: (Backdated to prenup curse)
[It’s accidental video. The device is set on the coffee table and it’s filming at a slight angle. Charlie and Merlin are sitting on the couch in the house. Her legs are over his lap and his arm is around her shoulders. They have paperwork in their hands and there’s something about it that they find ridiculously amusing.]
I just see no point in these things. It’s like...it’s like people have given up on their marriage before it even started and I know that’s not the case most of the time. They just seem stupid.
[She leans her head on his shoulder, lowering her own stack of papers.]
I’m pretty amused at how quickly people reach for these when they’re planning on getting married.
[Merlin purses his lips as if in thought for a moment before he gives a soft snort of laughter.]
It’s like things only really matter on the very day and then you can sort of drop them, like this, isn’t it? If you want to be really sceptical.
Exactly. It’s stupid. If you have your doubts, why marry at all? [Charlie shrugs, looking at Merlin.] I don’t have any doubts. In case you were wondering. The only problem I have is you’re a blanket hog. But that’s really it.
[She really can’t help but tease, especially since Charlie isn’t even a fan of blankets. She’s warm enough without so the whole blanket hogging? It doesn’t exist and even if it did, it wouldn’t even be a bother. Charlie’s just being a brat.]
I have a problem with your teasing. You’re almost as bad as Arthur.
[Which means he doesn’t have a problem with it at all, because just as it is with him and Arthur, it’s something him and Charlie do.]
[And Charlie’s laughing just slightly, raising an eyebrow and looking at Merlin in mock-annoyance.]
Is that so? If we’re so awful to each other now, maybe we should fill this out.
[And because she’s just so horrid to him, she kisses him quickly, resting her chin on his shoulder for a moment.] I get the animals and all of my cooking equipment.
[Merlin frowns.]
Shadow’s mine, Edmund left him to me. He comes with the house.
Well, I know he’s yours. I wouldn’t take him from you. I’m not that mean.
[He sniffs.]
Good.
[And he’s just struggling not to smile at this point.]
[So is Charlie. She chews her lower lip slightly, straightening and crossing her arms over her chest.]
Phantom’d miss Shadow, though. And Hypnos’d miss Arthur. It’s probably best we just stay together, despite the awful behavior.
[With a grimace, Merlin gives a suffering sigh.]
Fine. I guess we have no choice.
[Which is apparently his limit, as he starts laughing through his nose after that.]
Wonderful.
[Charlie’s grinning, looking the happiest she’s looked in quite some time. And she meant it when she said wonderful. The prenup forms are tossed onto the table. This is enough to get the attention of one of the animals who chases the papers, knocking them and the networking device to the floor. It shows a shot of the ceiling for a second before shutting off.]

Re: voice;
